The majority of people who experience unintended pregnancies tend to be young women, as they have little concept of contraception due to their young age, which can lead to unintended pregnancies. Most people choose to have an abortion after discovering an unexpected pregnancy, but they are not familiar with the precautions for having an abortion. So, when can a pregnant woman not have an abortion?
It is best to have an abortion surgery before 9 weeks of pregnancy, which is around 35 to 70 days of pregnancy. It is best to have an abortion between 40 and 60 days of pregnancy. If it exceeds 70 days, abortion surgery cannot be performed, only induced labor surgery can be performed. Abortion surgery is best performed around 12 to 24 weeks of pregnancy, as the earlier it occurs, the higher the safety. If a woman does not want that child from the beginning, it is best to have an abortion surgery as soon as possible.
Both after abortion and induced abortion, women need to take care of their bodies. Pay attention to rest and strengthen nutrition. You should rest in bed for two to three days after surgery, and gradually increase your activity time by getting out of bed after a few days. Do not engage in heavy physical labor or cold water labor within half a month after the abortion to avoid exposure to cold.
Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more protein rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, legumes, and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins to promote the repair of the endometrium. After surgery, the cervix is not completely closed and the endometrium undergoes a process of repair. During this period, special attention should be paid to maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia. The sanitary napkins and underwear used should be washed and changed frequently, and sitz baths should be avoided within half a month after surgery to prevent dirty water from entering the vagina and causing infection.
